The LCD shows light blue screen and the viewfinder nothing at all

\015 My Sony DSC H1 has developed a snag. The LCD and viewfinder don't show the picture that I shoot. The LCD has light blue shaded colour and the properties of the pictures show what the good pictures taken earlier used to show. All other functions are working but the picture that I focus on is neither shown on the LCD nor it shows anything when downloaded. \015\012Could it be becuse I tried shooting a picture when the battery was running low? I developed this snag after this only. What should I do and how much would it cost me to get it rectified? Please help.\015

The LCD shows light blue screen and the viewfinder nothing at all

My camera was dropped. The LCD screen is black with two small crack lines on screen. There are some light vertical lines but no image at all (in camera or playback mode). Zoom moves. I can hear camera take multiple pictures in burst mode.I think it is still working. But the screen shows nothing and there is noview finder on this camera.

The screen is fully damaged. You will have to get it replaced. Prior to that click a few snaps and transfer them to yous PC and check whether all the images are sharp and do not show any problem. Cause the service centre might try to get more money f ...

Hi!
My camera powers up, shows the EasyShare splash screen, then nothing can be viewed either on the LCD or via the eye viewer. Yep, the cap is off so that's not obstructing it; there is plenty of light, the flash is on but does't work.
I also can't get the Menu or Review to display on the LCD. This has just begun happening, no damage to the unit, it's fully charged... Please help!!!
Thank you so much!
Tracy

Hi Tracy.The symptoms are those of an internal hardware failure. The camera starts up, indicating that it is powered. Then it shows the splash screen, which says that the LCD is working. Then the camera crashes while doing the initial tes ...

LCD Screen Okay, Like an idiot, I turned off my LCD screen, long ago, so that I could use the viewfinder since both cannot be used at once. I would simply like to know HOW TO TURN THE LCD SCREEN BACK ON!!! it has driven me crazy, the book doesn't help, I have gone through resetting to default settings and nothing. I think I have really changed something in the setup and I hope I can reverse it. Anyone with a solution??? Please??? Driven Crazy by cam Rebecca

Dark LCD I have an A70, about a year old. The problem is the LCD screen is very dark. It is almost completely black unless I point the camera dirrectly at light. If I take a picture with the viewfinder the picture is exactly what the LCD screen looks like. This happened as we were using the camera. I also cannot view any of the pictures in the camera. I no the display is not completly out because it works to access the menu screen. It wasn't droped or anything. I can't find any setting to change

The LCD Monitor of my Canon PowerShot A95 shows purple, white, and black horizontal lines instead of a clear image of what is in the Viewfinder. Pictures taken while showing up this way on the LCD Monitor turn out with the same fuzzy stripes. Light lines show up in the well-lit areas of the scene and dark lines show up where the scene is dark. The problem was intermittent for months but now cannot be corrected by powering off. Thanks, Steve

LCD screen Why is the LCD screen black? It is showing that it has power but the screen is totally black. I charged it and still nothing. Thanks

Hi, I bought the Fujifilm Finepix S2500HD a week back. I have noticed a strange problem with the LCD screen or is it the sensor?
In low light situations when you turn the camera on, the screen is not clear and there are disturbances in the form of blue dots across the LCD which appear like a screen refreshing phenomena. The same can be observed in the EVF also. Is there a problem with the sensor of the camera. The best way to notice this problem is by keeping your hand fully in front of the l

Just bought the canon Rebel and can't seem to find the right screen to get the LCD screen to show what I am taking a picture of. I can look through the little viewfinder, but can't get it to show on the screen until after I review it after I take the picture.

Hello - My Olympus SP-550OUZ Camera was in a rucksack which slid of my shoulder and hit the ground.

The lens moves in and out not problem everything seems to work fine except when you look to take a picture either by viewfinder or the lcd screen all it sees is a blurry hazy purple pictu

Lcd screen is very light blue on one half and white on the other.Dividing the two sides is a black spot at the top of the screen and a fine verticle line. Also two fine blue horazontal lines near the bottom of white side. The camera was not dropped banged or left in extreme temps.

The iris is probably shut closed or the CCD is bad. The iris controls the amount of light that enters the CCD (charged coupled device). Sometime the iris get moisture inside and cannot open. Or the CCD is defective. Leave it in a dry environment for ...

BATTERY DISCHARGE I have an Olympus FE 210 Digital Camera and had been using the same for over 3 months. Recently I observed a problem in the same. When I put the camera on, I can browse on the LCD screen and can see the snaps available in the memory. However, when I try to click a new snap, before the flash could pick up, the LCD screen trurns blue and starts showing the signal "BATTERY EMPTY". I changed many sets of new batteries but the problem continues. I am not able to use the camera for c

I own a Canon power shot SD790 IS and I've been using wonderfully for the past few months Last weekend when I turned on my camera to view some pics I noticed a little blue screen on the corner of my camera in when I take pictures and upload them to the camera the blue spot doesn't show up on the pictures thank God but it's on my LCD screen and it seems internal I don't know if it's dead pixel or a lens problem can this be fixed at home please help I can't send it back because I ordered it online

It seems to be a dead pixel, best thing would be to have it replaced from the Seller, else you can get it replaced with a new working lcd panel. This may be an expensive solution.Check whether you have a worldwide warranty from Canon, that will help ...

My camera when turned on no images appear in the lcd screen only tinge of brown-black colors or light blue color appear in the screen. Before this thing happened, once it's turned on immediately images appear in the lcd. What most probably happened?

Help No image in the viewfinder or on the lcd screen when in shooting mode. Have amber light rather than green. In playback mode images appear on lcd screen. Was working fine the last time I used it and have changed the batteries to newly charged. Have also reset to default settings.

This sounds like it might be a defective CCD imager. If so, Canon should fix this for you for free, including free shipping both ways. This is regardless of your camera's warranty status. Please check the following two links for more info:\015\ ...
